it will be smooth....The W.O.T. coil..???? Aftermarket coil maybe not shielded properly ??? .....Does the stock coil do that on the explorer I doubt it....

I just got mine back from Garrett and it is doing the same thing falsing . Sake it, false signals, on the beach , machine is balanced sensitively turned down, guess what false signals. I noticed in the invoice from the factory it did not say what was fixed. I called Garrett and they told me they replaced the coil (new) and recalibrated that machine. I looked at the coil and it is not the one I sent , however it was scratched up on top and heavy ware on the bottom. Well I called Garrett again, I explained to them about the coil, they apologized and told me they are sending me another coil ( I hope new) out Monday. Getting frustrated . I hope they make it right.

Max, I just attached my WOT to my Excalibur and it falses like crazy in the water. On dry sand it's fine. My 10' coil gives me no trouble in either situation. I think maybe that WOT coil is either too sensitive or has shielding problems.
